Hi baby Nafan
Auntie Cassie, Ava, and baby Nathan (or as Kekoa says, baby Nafan) came over on Wednesday for a playdate and to bring us dinner (thank you so much).
Kekoa LOVES baby Nathan and jumped right in when he saw a photo op. Ava decided to pass on the photo op, we tried getting all 4 of them together.
We were all laughing at how much bigger Nathan is than Malia. Nathan just started rolling, which was the cutest thing to see. Good job Nathan.
be gentle Nathan! :)
That is enough pictures!

little show off
My mom was here on Sunday and Kekoa was showing off, big time.
He was cracking us up. It was one of those moments that I wish I could've bottled up to save for later. Oh, he is SO cute.
the loud whistle and soft whistle
bust my buffelers (buffers) and cinders and funnelels (funnels)

past 2 nights
Wow, what a different night tonight was.
This was my second night alone with the two kiddos. Let me just say that last night completely sucked the big one. We were all in tears at one point. I was in the bathroom at one point, wondering how I was going to do this every night by myself. It didn't help that Kekoa didn't have a nap, so there were many meltdowns. When it was time to read a story, Kekoa was in tears, Malia was screaming, and I was in tears. I had to tell Kekoa that there is only 1 mommy. This he understood and we repeated it all day today. During dinner tonight he even said, "If there were 2 mommies, it be easier" (which is what I told him last night) Malia fell asleep easy, Kekoa did not. Malia woke up around 9:00 to nurse and Kekoa took this as an opportunity to run back and forth between our room and his room. At one point, I said, "Kekoa, I need you to just go to sleep. Go in your room and go to sleep". He tells me "Oh, that is what you want me to do mommy?" I had to try really hard not to laugh, even though I was so frustrated. After nursing Malia, Kekoa and I slept in our bed, well I fell asleep before he did. He just kept tossing and turning, not sure what time he finally fell asleep.
Tonight was so much smoother. Both Scott and I talked to Kekoa all day long about how he was going to go to bed like a big boy, like his friend Cole does (he wants to be like Cole), that Cole's mommy gives him a kiss and then he goes to bed by himself.
I even gave both kids a bath! Not sure what was so different, but I hope there are more nights like tonight.
Kekoa was good with sharing mama during story time. Malia was so sleepy from her bath that she fell asleep, in my arms, during story time and I was able to transfer her, no problem. And as I write this, Kekoa is actually sleeping in his bed. The first night in awhile that he has fallen asleep so quickly in his own bed, without getting up a million times or just ending up in our bed with me. I am enjoying every minute and feel like a rockstar right now! :)

1 month present
Malia's 1 month present to her mama was sleeping almost 7 1/2 hours last night!!! Yes, she slept from about 9:00pm to 4:30am and then did another 4 hour stretch.
When I heard her waking up, I looked at the clock, thinking it would say 2:00. My mouth dropped when I saw what time it was. Needless to say, I feel so much better today with a little more sleep.
Now if I could only get Kekoa to sleep that long!
